Repeat after me: UDP IS STATELESS. Indeed, a quick examination of the output of netstat on any OpenBSD system shows that the state column is *always* empty for UDP sockets. As for answering requests, how do you know it isn't? Did you trace the process? Did you use tcpdump to confirm that the packets were being received? Have you confirmed that your pf config isn't blocking them? It's been years since I've had to deal with samba, so I can't really help you further...other than to point out that you failed to provide any information about your system or the samba you're running. What version of OpenBSD? Did you install the samba package from the ftp site, or did you build the port yourself, or did you download the source and build it yourself without using the ports framework? Philip Guenther
